Mainly Music runs on Monday and Thursday mornings within school term dates, from 10am to around 11:30am, in the Wood Hall (6 Wood Street, Hawthorn).

Mainly Music is a fun music, songs and physical activity programme for young children and their parents (or other carers) to enjoy together. Children from birth to age 4 are welcome. The programme helps children have fun, socialise with adults and other children, and develop gross and fine motor skills, language, imagination, mathematical and pre-reading skills. Children are introduced to music and creative activities, and families are given an opportunity to think about the God-part of life.

A Mainly Music morning starts at 10am with about half an hour of structured music-based group activities, followed by morning tea for both the children and adults, moving into a relaxed time for children to play together with play equipment in our delightful tree-shaded courtyard and with toys inside the Wood Hall.

Mainly Music was first developed in Australia and New Zealand in 1990, and has been running in the Wood Hall since 2011, conducted by Christ Church Hawthorn volunteers. It costs $5 per family per morning, paid in advance for a whole term.

Due to high demand for this fabulous programme, we currently (2017) have a waiting list for both Monday and Thursday sessions. A trial session can be booked for you to visit a session, before deciding to go on the waiting list, using the contact form below.
